\ All Things Girl Scouts: Kookaburra

Kookaburra

Girl Scout songs are an integral part of being a girl scout.  These are some of my favorites! Please enjoy them.  I grew up in the midwest, so if you are from a different region, you may have slightly different lyrics!  I've included links to YouTube videos, but they are not *my* videos - enjoy them, and let the artists know if you loved them!









Kookaburra

Kookaburra sits in the old gum tree, 

Merry, merry king of the bush is he, 

Laugh, Kookaburra! Laugh, Kookaburra! 

Gay your life must be. 

Kookaburra sits in the old gum tree, 

Eating all the gum drops he can see, 

Stop, Kookaburra! Stop, Kookaburra! 

Leave some there for me. 


Kookaburra sits in the old gum tree, 

 all the monkeys he can see, 

Stop, Kookaburra! Stop, Kookaburra! 

That's not a monkey that's me. 


Kookaburra sits on a rusty nail, 

Gets a boo-boo in his tail, 

Cry, Kookaburra! Cry, kookaburra! 

Oh how life can be.
